Birds of Cape May

Posted on October 9, 2013February 18, 2018 by Michael Rappa

Anyone who has spent much time in Cape May, NJ knows that it is a great spot for bird watching, particularly along the various nature trails. I’ve hiked the trails in the past, but not with a camera like my Nikon D5100, which is capable of capturing in-motion shots I had never before dreamed possible. I love this camera.

Here are a few of my favorite bird photos from our trip to Cape May a couple of weeks ago. You can click on any image to see a bigger version.

Do you know the poem “Wild Geese” by Mary Oliver? It’s one of my favorites, and this photo reminds me of it.

These pictures are amazing! The camera makes them look like we are right there looking at the birds.
